There is nothing like fresh biscuits! We love them with almost any meal, and both of my kids love to come home from a long day at school to find a basket of fresh biscuits to hold them over until dinner. This recipe is so easy that you can have a small batch of fresh biscuits ready and on the table in about 15 minutes, with only 3 ingredients!
I love to bake something fresh everyday. I do it for a bunch of reasons; out of love, boredom and necessity. Anytime I can whip up something fresh instead of turning to processed food, count me in. This biscuit recipe is so good and easy. It is truly foolproof. You can't mess this recipe up, even if you try! This is a recipe an inexperienced baker can enjoy, but even the most seasoned biscuit baker will appreciate the simplicity of this recipe!
Ingredients:
2 cups of self rising flour + a little extra for dusting
a pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups of heavy cream
Combine all ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl.
When the ingredients are combined, pull the dough out of the bowl and knead it by hand for about 2 minutes. You do not want to overwork this dough! That is the secret to fluffy, flaky biscuits.
Roll the dough out to about 1/2 an inch thickness.
Using a mason jar lid or biscuit cutter, cut the dough into circles and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
If you like, brush the tops with melted butter when they come out of the oven.
Serve warm, with butter and jam.
You can store any leftovers in an airtight container and pop them in the microwave for about 15 seconds to reheat.
This biscuit recipe is really good for being so fuss free. It pairs perfectly with my copycat Cracker Barrel Chicken and Dumplings. It would also be fantastic with carrot soup.
